Halloween Mice

Before I put away my witches hat and boots, I have one final Halloween tutorial til next year. It was an awesome Halloween and thank all of you for celebrating it with me.

My Aunt Marion, my Mother-In-Law's sister, made these. I had a fit over them, they are the cutest thing...I had to hide some so that I could take some pics in the day time. Well, they were "hiding" in the microwave, (I know, I should have hid them in the fridge) and Katie made some pop corn and melted them some. She tried to put them back together. She did a good enough job so you can at least get the idea of how cute they are. Just a little out of shape...

Halloween Mice Recipe
You will need:
Cherry's (with stem)
Hershey Kisses
Sliced Almonds
Chocolate (I guess you could use bark chocolate or any kind you can melt)

Dip Cherry's in melted chocolate, put 2 almond slices as ears, stick Kiss on it...you may need to put a little choc between the almonds and Kiss to make it stick.
Easy recipe that is so cute!

My first post! "Meathead Recipe"

This is my very first post on my new blog! I am going to have so much fun re-living that dramas of mommyhood day in and day out! I will also try to fit in a few helpful hints and craft tutorials!

Halloween is right around the corner! I love decorating for Halloween and each year I try to outdo the year before! Yesterday I picked up some cheap wire Garden Fencing from Dollar General for 50% off. I probably could have waited for it to be 75% off but I didn't want to risk them being sold out like I did last year. I plan on painting them gray and outlining my "graveyard" with them. I had to use stakes and rope last year which didn't give as good of effect as the fencing will...spooky!!!!
I will post pictures soon of previous ghouls I have made, including:
a mummy
a coffin with dead man in it
a ham "meathead"
a science lab
glitter bones
many more to come...

Meathead Recipe

I had to buy a skull on ebay...it's plastic (not real!heehee)

Cream Cheese spread all over the skull (the recipe called for red Jell-o but I found that cream cheese worked better)

Thinly Sliced Ham strategically placed around scull

1 Boiled Egg cut in half with olive for eyeballs

Garnish with Lettuce and get ready to gross people out!!

Serve with rolls and mustard...
